Speculating on the rumors surrounding pro wrestling is a favored pastime of many fans, perhaps second only to actually watching the matches. In this daily column, we take a look at the latest rumors being churned out by the pro wrestling rumor mill.
Important reminder: Rumors are just that — rumors. None of this has been confirmed as fact, it’s just circulating around the pro wrestling rumor mill. We track rumor accuracy in a weekly feature called Rumor Look Back you can find here. Remember, take it all with a grain of salt.

- Replying to a reader question about Will Ospreay only needing six months to get cleared after what Ospreay said was “double fusion surgery” on his neck in September, PWInsider’s Mike Johnson wrote: “I don’t believe Ospreay had neck fusion surgery, which typically takes a year to recover from.”
